Airport Donetsk

Donetsk’s airport, named after Sergei Prokofiev, was renovated in 2012, but destroyed two years later in the war between Ukrainian forces and Donetsk separatists. The atrocious battle for the airport – a more symbolic, than strategic, aim – has been shown through the eyes of both sides. This is a story about the frightening human ability to adapt to the way of life that is constantly in danger.The author of the film Shahida Tulaganova is a journalist who has worked for the BBC and Radio Free Europe and authored several investigative documentaries.
